THE HumORs OF EVICTION.

scribes AN Amusing Scene.
The following humorous and graphic
description of an eviction scene in Ireland
Is taken from private letter written by
Father Henry McGolrick to friend in this
city:
Yesterday Lady Saurin, of Limerick. sent
the bailifs, sheriff, etc., guarded by $50 police
men, to evict and seize on the goods and chat
tells of the Flaunerys. Of Roran--just beyond
kylenagoona. No one in Boris would give
lodging or food to the bailifs or policemen, so
they had TO bivouac In the court house, and
rest on straw sold them by Johnny EXshaw.
Their plan was to come on the Flannery s
when least expected, like n wolf on the
fold" so ut o'clock this morning CFeb %
the rnagistrares, police and all were marched
TO the scene Of action. The people Of the town
must have remained up watching ali night.
Tor whsn the imposing cavacade came up TO
the first farm cheer that made the welkin
ring greeted them. and II solitary he-goat,
dressed in green ribbons, was the only thing
the sheriff could find on the premises. The
marauding official ordered the police to seize
what he called THAT animal" The capriciouS
quadruped was lively and rebelliouS, and de-
termined not to be seized. A most ridiculous
scene ensued, and the laughter was uproar-
ious when the Borrisokanc and Kilbarron
bands struck up ''The Peeier and the Goat"
There was no eviction nor seizure on any
farm, for it was "nulla bona everywhere the
sheriff went.
The march back to town was magnificent,
the Boris band leading, with the big drum
ster doing the principal part then the police
men guarding the agent and the emergency
men, and the Terryglass, Klbarron and Car
rigalwig people following. Such cheering!
Such laughter! Farmers on horseback, rid
ing four deep gave the procession an impoS-
ing appearance, and even old men and women
followed in their cars. as if going to a fu-
neral.

THE EX OSITEON.
An UuimpOrtant Session of the
Board of Directors.


The Exposition directors held short
public session yesterday, executive business
demanding most of their attention. In
reply to note from Secretary Byron, Rev.
Christopher Jansen wrote the board that he
had received no invitation from the Scandi-
ma Wan Art society for lecture OH the art
of his native land, and he was not aware of
the existence of such an association; how
ever should the board desire such a lecture
from him, he would gladly give an address
on Scandinavian art at any time after
March II.
The general manager was instructed to
close an agreement with the Methodist peo-
pie by which they are to pay 5000 for the
use of the exposition building for three
weeks for the Sam Jones meetings, they to
make all arrangements and to remove all
partitions. leaving the building in the same
condition as now. Stark Il Darrow will
be permitted to store carriages in the base
ment of the building until May at usual
storage rates. Olof Ellison again brought
nm the Scandinavian art and music subjects,
saving that the Norwegian association could
give nothing more than moral support to
those subjects. The board went into exec
utiVe session.

Gus Charge.
About o'clock yesterday afternoon the
fire department was called by an alarm
from Box 81 to the tenement row on Mic
ollet avenue just above Tenth street. An
investigation showed that the flames
emanated from closet ON the Sec
ond floor of No. 1914. Here a
pile of clothing was burning, but it was
eNtinguished before any particular damage
was done. The fire looked like an mcen-
diary one, and detectives were at once put
TO work on the case. Half an hour later
Detective John Hoy arrested young man
giving his name as Horace G. Hunt, at the
Merchants hotel as the perpetrator. The
man was placed in Cell l, at the central
lookup. Here he made full confession
to Jailer Matt Bros and Patrol Driver BoSt-
wick. but when seen by reporter. denied
that he knew anything in regard to the fire.
When Hunt made his confession at the
lock up, he said that he had gone into the
house. and, going to a closet, had fired 4
pair of pantalOonS hanging there and had
then gone out again, leaving the closet
door open and shutting the bedroom door.
He assigned no reason for his crime.

vernment Gardens at Calcutta with v
Munshi tro'ting at his side sl6wly tell
ing him stories out. of the "Arabian
Nights" in choice and simple Persian,
AS they returned home the Viceroy
would repeat the tale, his black
bearded 'coach" putting him right;
and here we see the good fruit of
those matutinal studies-he can talk
to the frontier men in their own Court
tongue.
On Saturday Lord Dufferin did a
thing still more novel for u Gdvern.r
General than the Peshawur Dunbar.
He rode through the Khybtr! The
ZiIlah-ul- MuIk-the Shadow Of the
greatness of Victoria"-passed inside
the grim mountain gates Of India, and
%journeyed twenty miles up the defIe
which leads to JamrOod and Onbul.
The black heights along the path
were covered with parties of the
Afreedee riheman, and S~quadrons of
Khyberee lancers led the way, for it
is an etiquette Of a Viceroy to be
guarded, whether at Calcutta or
Attock, by native soldiers. One al
ways sees them doing "sentry-go' at
the gates of Government House. AS
far as Ali Musjid Lady Duferin ac-
companied her illustrious husband in
a carriage from that point the roal

cles, and the distinguished parry took
'o the saddle. Yesterday, with Sir
Frederick Roberts and the Commits
siOner Of Peshawur in the Viceregal
suite, their Excellencies were TO ride
through the Kohat Pass but that
expedition, although extremely inter
esting, is outdone in the foo | which it
supplies for historical Imagination by
the official entry into the Khyber.
From Attock well nigh to Cubul this
Asiatic Glencoe used to be a den of
thieves and murderers. Over and
over a,ain has the red torrent of war
rolled down its gloomy w~indings.
Even we ourselves have marched up
its steep slopes in pride and hope to
have our regiments forced back brok-
en- and decimated-witneSs the evil
days of JeIlalbad and Sale. But the
: Khyberee matchbox men well know
how, since that time, Gilbert drove
the Afshans like scattered sheep
through the pass after the victory of
Gooierat ; and how long afterwards
the columns of Roberts Glove their
way through it, and held CabuI, and
relieved Candahar. The city of Pesh-
awur and our India Gate at AtIock,
which Lord Lawrence, in one of his
weaker hours, would have yielded,
are to-day securely guarded by the
Queens troops, native and ES.opean,
and the Khyberees take our pay and
let the caravans pass, with their shawl
wool and musk and lapis-lazuli,
which once left dead merchants or a
heavy ratsom at every turn of the
long mountain avenue. 1t is good

Bnrmah; and the common people OF
thousand Indian districts have gladly
looked upon the representative of the
Queen Empress. This winter polIti-
cal affairs-combined, no doubt, with
personal curiosity-directed the Vice
'Toy's steps towards the frontier, and
we have seer him visiting Kurrachee,
passing along the BeIoochistan bor-
der to Quota, and thence under the
Suleiman Mountains, by the interest

snawur where he arrived on Thurs
day last. On Friday his Excellency
held, in that famous frontier city, the
Carlisle OF India, the first Durbar ever
presided over there by any Governor
General. Besides the usual galaxy
of British military and civil officers,
'here were in attendance Princes Of
the Blood from Bokhara and Kho-
the Badshah of Kunnar, with
Amirs and Chiefs of all sorts from the
adjacent hills and plains. There were

That strange and ancient mountain
city whose name Akbar the Great
changed from Parashara to Peshawur
must indeed have been en- f6te on
such an occasion. 1t had not witness
ed so stirring a day since the epoch
when the tribesmen of the Indus
drove back the tribute 9atherers Of
Persia and even OF posed ISLANDER
himself marching against Porus. That
Durbar, in the antique spot which has
been "a focus of war for twenty-five
centuries, must indeed have furnished
q strange, %glittering, and significant
spectacle, about which all the frontier
bazaars will chatter for many a
month 10 come. There was a talk
some time ago of a proposed journey
by the Emperor OF Russia to Snmar-
kand, and perhaps even further, to
his new frontier. Such a visitor, and
only such, could excite in the trans
Afghan regions. emotions similar to
those which lord Dufrrin's presence
must have caused among the proud
but subjugated warriors of cis-Afgha-
nistan who on Friday last brought to
the feet of the Queens Representative
the scented rice of the Bara, and laid
the hills ofdheir swords in his hand.
To crown it all, the Viceroy made
